THIS IS SO WEIRD, I LOVE IT.I loved the audiobook of [b:Cold Cereal 11595220 Cold Cereal Adam Rex https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1321973206s/11595220.jpg 16537151] but apparently the rest of the trilogy hasn't been recorded, so I read the print copy. Which was cool too, because it has illustrations! (Illustrations of awesome black pixies with Afros!) Also one of the discs of the audiobook was jacked up so reading this made me realize that I had missed some fairly significant plot twists, but I felt like I was able to get up to speed pretty quickly. I think these books would make fun family read-alouds because there are a lot of references that will probably fly over a lot of kids' heads, such as the introduction of Sir Richard Starkey of the Quarrymen, as a character. But I also think they're fun enough that kids will dig them even if they don't get everything. (And then maybe one day when they're older they'll realize, oh, I read Beatles RPF fanfiction when I was a kid, weird.)
